Chapter 66, The Pearl of the Night
It has been a month since Li Ming became the family doctor of the Han government. In the past month, Li Ming's medical skills have been recognized by everyone. It can be said that from Mrs. Han to the people of Han's house, they are full of praise for Li Ming's medical skills. However, the only fly in the ointment is that Li Ming is too dark.
In addition to the salary given by the Han government, Li Ming often finds various reasons to ask for additional expenses. For example, I have not had enough medicines recently, I have been too busy to have time recently, etc. Even if you don't have much money and want to see a doctor, you have to pay the next month's salary in advance. Although everyone was a little dissatisfied with this, when they thought of his medical skills and elixir, they endured it. Those who came and went, except for those masters, except for those who were seriously ill, stopped coming to the door.
All of this is naturally in Li Ming's plan, and he showed greed for money before, firstly, to make the Han family mistakenly think that he is just a greedy villain, and secondly, to avoid harassment from everyone and leave enough free time for himself. Due to the bottleneck in Li Ming's current cultivation, if he couldn't get enough wood spar, the three attribute exercises in his body would not be able to reach a balance, so Li Ming was not in a hurry to cultivate during this time.
Due to the abundance of time, Li Ming found various opportunities to get close to Han Qi and find out about the wood spar from him.
"Han Qi, where are you going to go to relax today?" Li Ming asked with a grin.
"May I ask Divine Doctor Li, you always follow me all day long, aren't you tired?" Han Qi had just changed his clothes and was about to go out, when he was blocked by Li Ming at the door.
"Don't be tired, the old lady ordered me to cure your illness, and in order to find the cause of the disease, I naturally want to be by your side at all times. Li Ming replied with a serious face.
"Don't use my grandmother to press me, since you love to follow, just follow!" Han Qi shook his head angrily and walked forward.
It's not that Han Qi didn't want to get rid of Li Ming, but every time he got rid of it, Li Ming went to Mrs. Han to make a small report, saying that in order to cure his illness as soon as possible, he also hoped that Han Gongzi would cooperate. And the old lady naturally criticized herself and ordered herself to cooperate with Doctor Li.
Alas, in desperation, Han Qi had to accept Li Ming's surveillance. Looking at his hippie smiling face, sometimes I really want to find a place where no one is there and beat him up.
Since he quarreled with Xu Ruolan at his grandmother's birthday banquet because of his identity, Han Qi has been depressed these days and can't lift his spirits in anything. So, every day except for hanging out is hanging out. If you go to the casino today and lose or win a few thousand taels of silver, tomorrow you will go to the teahouse to see the scenery for another day...... In short, Li Ming was so tired that he lost interest.
Just when Li Ming was bored and rested on the table, Han Qi finally seized the opportunity and quietly slipped out of the teahouse.
It turned out that next month was Xu Ruolan's birthday, and Han Qi planned to give her a unique birthday gift, which was regarded as an apology, hoping to gain the other party's understanding. These days, Han Qi racked his brains and finally came up with a good idea.
Today, Han Qi took advantage of Li Ming's sleep and ran all the way to the largest jewelry store in Hancheng, intending to buy a long-cherished night pearl and embed it in a necklace, using its bright light day and night to express his sincerity.
Just when Han Qi rushed into the jewelry store and went straight to the treasure of the town store, the Night Pearl, he suddenly found that the box that originally contained the Night Pearl was empty.
"Frightened, where is the Night Pearl, where is my Night Pearl?" Han Qi shouted loudly.
You must know that the Night Pearl is an extremely rare treasure even in the world of cultivating immortals, but it is not of great use except for beauty, so people who cultivate immortals don't care. The immortal cultivation realm is still rare, let alone in the mortal realm, it can be said that in a short period of time in the cold city, it is extremely difficult to find another one.
Now, Han Qi is in a hurry. He went straight to the counter, wanting to ask the boss who had bought the Night Pearl.
At the moment when Han Qi turned around, suddenly, a blue coat, medium height, and slender back came into view.
Han Qi was taken aback, hurriedly retracted his figure, and hurriedly dodged aside.
"Doctor Li, this is what you want, I have it packed for you, next time, if you need anything, just ask. Owner Song of the jewelry store said sincerely.
"Thank you, Boss Song. I'm embarrassed to be half-sold and half-given away this time, another day, I will definitely refine a furnace of longevity pill for you alone to ensure that you live to be a hundred years old. Li Ming smiled and took a brocade box and put it in his pocket.
"Oh, then I really want to thank you. When Boss Song heard that Doctor Li knew himself so well and promised that he would live to be a hundred years old, he was so excited that he almost knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"You're welcome, Boss Song, I'll go first, another day, after refining the Dan, I'll send someone to send it to you." Li Ming waved his hand and turned to leave.
As soon as Li Ming walked out of the store, Han Qi jumped over impatiently and asked, "Boss Song, where is my night pearl?"
"Han Gongzi, your night pearl is not here with me?" Boss Song was stunned by the other party's brainless question.
"No, it's the one, it's the one there. Han Qi was so excited that he pointed to the empty box and said incoherently.
"Oh, you're talking about the treasure of our town. ”
"Yes, yes, that's it, where is it? It's still there yesterday?"
"Oh, I was bought by a customer. Boss Song replied truthfully.
"Who bought it?" The worry in Han Qi's heart finally happened.
"This, hehe, you are also a regular customer of our family, and you know the rules. I'm afraid, it's inconvenient!" Boss Song said embarrassedly.
"What's inconvenient, you tell me quickly, who bought it? Han Qi said excitedly.
"Han Gongzi, we do business, and we have rules for doing business. I hope you don't embarrass me. Boss Song still said with a polite smile.
"But didn't I say a long time ago that when I have saved up enough money, I will come and buy it? ”
"Han Gongzi, you said it, but you didn't pay at that time. If you don't pay the money, the baby won't be yours yet. ”
"But didn't you also say that ordinary people can't afford such a valuable treasure?"
"Han Gongzi, if you come to buy something today, I welcome you, if you come to find trouble today. Hehe, I'm going to give an eviction order. Boss Song said in a somewhat unkind tone.
Whether it is in the cold city or in other places in the mortal realm, mortals and immortal cultivators must abide by the local laws and regulations, and once they break the law, they must be severely punished.
Therefore, even if Han Qi had the ability to demolish this jewelry store, he couldn't bully others, otherwise, he would be punished by his elders or people from the immortal cultivation world.
Seeing that Boss Song had ordered the eviction of customers, Han Qi had to hold back the anger in his heart and walked out of the jewelry store with his head down.
In fact, with the solid family background of the Han family, there are not no night pearls like this, and there are even better ones, but if you want to take them, you need to ask Mrs. Han. If Xu Ruolan is found by Mrs. Han wearing the Night Pearl in the future, Han Qi will definitely not be able to eat and walk around. Therefore, Han Qi had to pay out of his own pocket to buy this one from the jewelry store. Because of this, these days, Han Qi went to the casino, used his divine sense to snoop, and killed all sides, earning enough money to buy the Night Pearl.
Seeing that the night pearl that was about to be bought in a blink of an eye, Han Qi's heart was extremely depressed, and for the person who bought the night pearl, Han Qi's heart was even more than 10,000 ***.
Just as Han Qi returned to the Han Mansion in disappointment, suddenly, a voice came from behind him.
"Han Gongzi, are you looking for this bead?"
